Description: JOHNNY HARTMANOnce In Every Life SEALED limited edition 200 gram Vinyl LP. Analogue Productions AAPJ 105. Stereo, limited edition 200 gram Vinyl LP reissue. COVER & VINYL: MINT still sealed, never played. JOHNNY HARTMAN (vocal) with Frank Wess, Joe Wilder, Billy Taylor, Al Gafa, Victor Gaskin, Keith Copeland.Recorded in 1980. Mastered by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio from the Original Analog Master Tape! 200-gram vinyl pressed at Quality Record Pressings! Tip-on Old-Style jacket by Stoughton Printing "This is a record fans of it have long hoped would be reissued but I'd been told that (Clint) Eastwood had gone beyond licensing the tracks and had bought the tapes. Leave it to Chad Kassem to get the tapes ... In any case the sound here is even better — way better than the already fine original. If you are a fan of this kind of 'Great American Songbook' style singing, you'll love this record. How great was Hartman? He's the only vocalist John Coltrane recorded with, but you probably knew that. An easy to recommend reissue!" — Music = 9/11; Sound = 10/11 - Michael Fremer, AnalogPlanet.com. "Analogue Productions rose to the challenge and reissued this gem in ever better balance, clarity, and focus of instruments. Hartman's voice is pure velvet smoothness. His mellow baritone at times is amazing in his breath control. Instruments come out of darkness, and yet blend and support Hartman to perfection. ... This entire album is not to be missed. It is a valuable example of how to produce a recording that literally takes the listener on a journey through the ups and downs of love and romance. Analogue Productions has done it yet again. This recording is ageless, and is a top recommendation from me!" — David Nemzer for Positive Feedback Online, November 2016. "He was a baritone with an ease that could kill you." So writes Eugene S. Robinson for Ozy.com, describing the genius jazz baritone crooner Johnny Hartman. Here, Analogue Productions brings you Once in Every Life. This was Johnny Hartman's next-to-last album (he made a record for Audiophile 12 days later) and the 57-year-old singer was still in prime form. His rich baritone voice is joined by a sextet also including Frank Wess (on tenor and flute), trumpeter Joe Wilder and pianist Billy Taylor. The ballads range from slow to a brighter medium-tempo pace, and Hartman (particularly on such tunes as "Easy Living," "Wave" and "I Could Write a Book") shows that he still had it this late in his career, writes AllMusic. In his film "Bridges of Madison County" Clint Eastwood used four tracks from Once in Every Life. That movie turned a lot of people on to Johnny Hartman. Needless to say, the richness of this 200-gram reissue doesn't stop with Hartman's easy, mellow voice. Not by a long shot. To present his gorgeous tone in its best light we relied upon the always-top-notch mastering of Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio, and the superior plating and pressing talents of Quality Record Pressings, makers of the world's finest-sounding LPs. Top it off with a Stoughton Printing tip-on heavyweight jacket and you've got the best Johnny Hartman reissue album you'll ever own. This is definitely one you're not going to want to miss. Wow! Analogue Productions' Chad Kassem had been trying to license this title since 1994, and we finally got it. You'll know why he tried so long after you hear it.

I will play grade on certain items only - it is just impossible for me to play grade everything I put on EBAY. RECORD GRADING: MINT (M) ---- It should be SEALED and appear to be brand new. Mint means STILL SEALED, NEVER PLAYED.NEAR MINT (NM or NM-) ---- OPENED or UNSEALED. Otherwise mint but has one or two tiny inconsequential flaws that do not affect play. Covers should be close to perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident. VERY GOOD PLUS (VG++ or strong VG++ or VG+++) The record or cover that all but the most particular collector would say looks outstanding. Cover may have insignificant manufacturers defect such as notch hole or cut corner. VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+ or strong VG+) The record has been handled and played infrequently or very carefully. On a disc, there may be light paper scuffs from sliding in and out of a sleeve or the vinyl or some of the original luster may be lost. A slight scratch that did not affect play would be acceptable for most collectors. Cover has most of its original gloss and has been well taken care of. Minor seam splits may be acceptable. VERY GOOD (VG or strong VG) ---- Record displays visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, light surface scratches, groove wear and spindle trails. Some audible surface noise, non-feelable marks that might or will affect the sound as mild occasional surface noise or periodic pops/clicks. Usually a cover is VG when one or more of these problems are evident: ring wear, seam splits, bent corners, loss of gloss, stains, etc. VERY GOOD- (VG- or G+) Record will show signs same as VG with heavier wear including noticeable groove wear and feelable marks that will likely pop or click. Popping or clicking will be most evident through quieter passages. Record should play all the way through, but may skip. GOOD (G) ---- Well played with little luster and significant surface noise. Despite defects, record should still play all the way through without skipping, but may skip. Several cover flaws will be apparent, but should not obliterate the artwork. Filler copy until a better one can be found. POOR (P) ---- Any record or cover that does not qualify for the above "Good" grading should be seen as Poor. Only the rarest of records should ever be graded as Poor while the others should go to the trash heap. DISCLAIMER.
